DeepSeek R1 Distill Qwen 32B

NVIDIA
DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B is a dense reasoning-focused language model developed by DeepSeek AI through distillation from the larger DeepSeek-R1 model. It features a 32B parameter transformer architecture with 64 layers, 40 attention heads, and a 5,120 hidden size, built on the Qwen2 architecture and fine-tuned using reasoning traces generated by DeepSeek-R1. The model transfers advanced reasoning behaviors into a smaller dense model optimized for mathematics, coding, and logical analysis. It supports a 128K token context window with extended RoPE scaling for long-context reasoning tasks.
